Hilltop Ranch | 17.5± Acres | 3, 684± SF Home | Heated Shop | Barn | Alfalfa Production Welcome to Hilltop Ranch, a picturesque 17.5-acre ranchette perched atop a private ridgeline just two miles from Craig, Colorado. This end-of-the-road sanctuary offers stunning panoramic views of the Yampa River Valley and Elkhead Mountains, blending the convenience of town proximity with the privacy and freedom of rural living. At the heart of the property sits a meticulously crafted 3, 684 square foot home, built by Mennonite craftsmen and designed for both comfort and function. The five-bedroom, three-bath residence features an open-concept layout across two levels, with a walkout lower level and generous natural light pouring into the south- and east-facing living areas. The spacious kitchen is a dream for any home chef, showcasing custom-built cabinetry, ample countertops, a corner pantry, and thoughtful features like built-in slide-out steps for children. The adjacent dining area opens to a back deck with expansive views—perfect for hosting family dinners or enjoying quiet evenings watching the sunset. The upper level includes one bedroom, a full bathroom, and a large laundry room, while the walkout lower level offers a private master suite, three additional bedrooms, a full bath, extra storage, and a separate office/den with direct outdoor access. For those needing space for projects or animals, the property delivers in full. A 30' x 48' heated shop with in-floor radiant heat, spray foam insulation, and built-in storage nooks is ideal for craftsmen, mechanics, or hobbyists. Attached to the shop is a barn with three stalls and additional room for equipment or vehicle storage. A connected 3.9-acre pasture ties into the corral and stalls, and the 9-acre dryland alfalfa/grass field yielded an impressive 1.4 tons/acre in 2023. Whether you're seeking a self-sufficient lifestyle, space for 4-H projects, or simply a beautiful and functional home base near town, Hilltop Ranch offers a rare blend of quality construction, rural beauty, and practical amenities.
